Pros

You get to work with really smart people. Benefits are fantastic and the company really supports charities.

Cons

Your time at TripAdvisor really depends upon which department you are in, we are continuously told that we are an engineering and product company which doesn’t do much for morale if you’re not in one of those teams. Employees who joined the company a few years back are being left behind when it comes to salary increases and career development. We talk a lot about risk taking, but this doesn’t really apply when it comes to recruitment as senior roles are often open a long time and employees take advantage of the situation.

I agree—TripAdvisor is filled with smart people---and not just in engineering and product management. While Product and Engineering are important for our success, there’s so many other teams that are equally vital, especially as we continue to grow globally. I do, however, have to disagree with you on one point: We continue to believe that we ARE a small company that just happens to have a lot of people. The majority of people at TripAdvisor don’t want to work at a big company that moves slowly-- we need to continue to challenge ourselves to optimize and not be complacent. And, our success depends on us continuing to find ways to move fast and innovate quickly, in order to maintain our competitive edge as we continue to grow.

Pros

Tons of great benefits, flexible schedule, relaxed work environment. TA is a company that understands the needs of your personal and family life, and is very flexible when situations arise. Exciting to work for a company that is still growing and has so much room to grow.

Cons

I honestly can't think of any cons.

Pros

You get a great benefits package, which I never had in my previous jobs. Nice modern office Fruits and snacks for free, lunch discounts

Cons

Salary is very low and changes and decisions are made without thinking and testing them first. Sales Agents and Account Executives have to find out on their own (or by customer complain) about changes made to site, prices or CRM messaging. Employees are always asked for feedback, but in the end it always goes the other way round and their opinion is not counting at all. No internal communication between different departments. Management not qualified to lead a multi billion dollar company
